Adding Gear Up as an exception and set NVIDIA as preferred graphics processor using the NVIDIA Control Panel
This guide only applies for systems with two different graphics cards.
This guide only details the steps for Windows systems.


1. Start the NVIDIA Control Panel by right-clicking on the desktop.
2. Go to the "Manage 3D Settings" page.
3. Go to the "Program Settings tab".

Now we need to make sure we have two exceptions - for both the 32 and the 64 bit version of Gear Up. Look in the dropdown list and see if you can find Traktor.Amalgam.App.exe (This is the Gear Up executable). If you don't then you should add that executable as in step 4 and 5. The executable is found where Steam installed Gear Up.

4. Add bin/Traktor.Amalgam.App.exe and press "Add".
5. Add bin64/Traktor.Amalgam.App.exe and press "Add".

If the computer has two graphics cards then there should be a drop down list just below.

6. Pick the NVIDIA GPU as the preferred processor for both the bin and bin64 executables.

That's it - now if you run Gear Up again the NVIDIA card should be used instead of the Intel HD graphics card.

Thanks, this guide fixed about 99% of the freezing issues. When will the fix be implemented into the build?
